Midlife and Abundance

Friday, November 16th, 2007

I’ve been re-reading an old favorite, “You Money or Your Life” and am reminded of something I truly believe. Most of us don’t know when enough is enough. I, for one, never think I am doing enough…with the emphasis on the doing.

Midlife gives us the opportunity to pause and  begin to recognize that  what truly mattes in life, are not the things we’ve done or the gadgets we’ve accumulated, but the person we have become. I like who I am. I like who I am becoming. Do I HAVE it all?  No - nor do I think that’s a goal anymore.

I’m in the process of clearing out - cleaning out old clothes to make room for a new look I am developing. Cleaning out old journals - because they really only capture the moment they were written in, and that moment is no longer important.

Sometimes I grieve for those old moments. Grieving is an important part of moving forward, I believe. But, the grief is simply meant to be acknowledged and noticed and not lived from. I am living from my future - and it is constantly containing newness - different from the young girl who danced and sang. Different from the student and the poet. But, none the less special. I am learning to honor this new moment.  I am grateful. Are you?

Intentional Abundance

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

How would you like your life to be?  Would you like to make a change or stay the way you are?  Most of us have some things we would like to change or have more of.  The good news is that intention and manifestation can help you create the life of your dreams!

 

Dr. Gay Hendricks is the author and co-author of more than twenty books dealing with personal growth, transformation, intention, and manifestation.  He defines manifestation as ‘the art of choosing how you want your life to be and turning those choices into reality.’ 

 

Through his research and studies, Dr. Hendricks has found that there are different levels of manifestation.  Much like laws we know in the physical world, Dr. Hendricks has also identified laws of manifestation that you can learn and use to create a life of your own design. 

 

There is scientific backing for this law of attraction.  Isaac Newton, a 17th century scientist, discovered and published several laws of motion and physics, many of which still hold true today.  Newton discovered for every action, there is an equal reaction.  The practices of visualization, affirmations and positive thinking are based on these Newtonian principles. 

 

The old adage “Like attracts Like” is also based on Newton‘s Laws.  Remember when you were in school and you first saw a magnet drawing metal filings around on a paper?  The energy of the iron magnet draws the energy of the iron filings to itself.  That is an example of the Law of Attraction. 

 

Quantum physics has shown that thoughts are energy and can be measured.  When you think positive thoughts, positive energies will return to you.  Just like with the iron filings, what we think about, we bring about.  When you focus your thoughts on success, the law of attraction will draw success to you.

 

Albert Einstein taught us back in the 1920’s that everything (including our physical body) is composed of energy. As humans, at our most basic level, we are beings of energy.  Energy has vibrations - high ones and low ones.  The good news is that you can take advantage of this energy and learn to shift your consciousness to draw things to you. 

 

Remember, thoughts are things.  We do not have to go chasing after things.  We can calm our minds, focus our thoughts, and bring about an alignment of purpose.  We can combine this alignment with positive thoughts and the law of attraction will bring amazing things to us. 

 

Saint Francis of Assisi taught us ‘For it is in giving that we receive.’ Give back to society and you will see even more wonderful things come to you.  For your greatest success, determine how you can give back and define very clearly what is most important to you. 

 

For instance, suppose you want a new job and more financial abundance.  You can go about this employment process in a traditional manner - employment agencies, executive search firms and the like.  It’s time consuming, often frustrating and usually expensive.

 

You can also take advantage of intention and manifestation.  First, determine what you have to offer.  Next, be very clear about what kind of job you want.  Decide how many dollars will give you abundance. 

 

Focus on your positives, focus on what you can contribute, focus on the actual dollar amounts you want.  Visualize, affirm, intention and believe that what you now see as the perfect position will come.  Often something different and even better arrives.  Combine your intentions with the traditional means and watch the positive results flow into your world!

 

Henry J. Kaiser said ‘Opportunity comes in work clothes.’  Pay attention to what is in your life.  Sometimes what comes back to you looks different than what you envision.  That means you need to look closer at your thoughts.  You can use what is all around you to adjust and fine tune your thoughts and intentions. 

 

Another life lesson to learn is: ‘Less is More.’  When you find yourself trying too hard, that is a signal to take time to open up your heart and mind a little bit more and ‘try’ a little bit less.  When you are in alignment, things will flow smoothly with ease and grace.  With practice, you can become very good at setting intentions with less effort and letting more things come to you. 

 

Our physical bodies are actually an excellent broadcasting medium - they are stronger than our minds are.  When you calm your thoughts, you can physically feel an intention inside your body.  You can learn to send out that energy you are feeling as part of your intentioning process.

 

Many people have received great benefits when working together with another person.  You can take advantage of the power of the MasterMind to bring manifestation into a higher level.  In our experience, we have found that when two people are working together in harmony, intentions and manifestation are often much more powerful. 

 

Together, in person or on the phone as Dr. Hendricks and I have done numerous times, be in focus and intention that you are in alignment.  Feel and sense that you are connected as one.  Allow your spirits, minds and bodies to send the intention out in harmony.

 

Tune in and receive to let this process serve you, and serve the world.   Focus on prosperity abundance, love, joy, money, wisdom and more good things for your life.  Feel the positive energy in your body and your spirit.  Intention that abundance will come to you.  And it will.

 

This doesn’t have to be a lengthy or time consuming process.  Five minutes is all you need to begin.  As you learn to use this marvelous power, wonderful means and support will come to you. 

 

As you become proficient in the different levels of manifestation, you will discover marvelous synchronicities with those around you.  Intentional abundance is a quick and easy way to tune in and receive all kinds of wonderful benefits in your world!

PROSPERITY SECRETS OF THE AGES

Friday, September 7th, 2007

One of the major truths of the Spiritual life is that there is ALWAYS more. It is the nature of Spirit to expand and our nature to continually be seeking SOMETHING MORE. We don’t have to be frustrated in the search. Just like there are laws that govern mathematics, music, physics and the physical universe, so there are spiritual laws that teach us how to prosper.

LAW 1 The Bible describes the first law when it speaks of sowing and reaping. Scientists describe it as action and reaction. Economists call it supply and demand. Emerson called it the law of compensation - like attracts like.

That which you radiate outward in your thoughts, feelings, mental pictures and words, you attract into your life and affairs. Each of us is a magnet. We don’t need to force success and prosperity. We need to develop an expectant, prosperous state of mind that is a magnet for all good rather than entertaining the tense, critical, anxious, depressed, unforgiving, possessive state of mind that is a magnet for all kinds of trouble and failure. Nothing can stand between you and the good you
dare to choose.

LAW 2 –You have heard it said that “Nature abhors a vacuum”. It is particularly true in the realm of prosperity. If you want greater good in your life, start forming a vacuum!! Get RID OF WHAT you don’t want to make room for what you do.

If there are clothes in your closet or furniture in your home or office that no longer seem right for you, give them away.

If there are people among your acquaintances and friends that no longer seem congenial – begin moving away.

Often it is difficult to know what you do want until you get rid of what you don’t. When you let go of the lesser, you make room for the greater. When you dare to form a vacuum, the substance of the universe rushes in to fill that empty space.

LAW 3 – the Law of creation says:

  • have a plan – write it out and constantly expand it
  • mentally imagine the plan as fulfilled
  • constantly affirm its perfect fulfillment

LAW 4 Dr. Emile Coue first declared that the imagination is a much stronger force than will power. When the imagination and will are in conflict, the imagination always wins. Spend time picturing what you want to happen coming to pass. Feel the feelings; get ONE WITH God/the Good on this.

LAW 5 – There has never been a nation in which the practice of this last ancient law has not prevailed. The early Egyptians, Babylonians, Persians, Arabians, Greeks, Romans and Chinese were among those who used this method. Even primitive man, through the financial sacrifices he offered his gods, practiced it.

True prosperity has a spiritual basis. God is the Source of your supply. Your mind, body, abilities, talents, education, experience, job or profession are all instruments and channels of your prosperity, but God is the Source.

You must do something definite and consistent to keep in touch with that rich Source, if you want to be consistently prospered.

Systematic giving opens the way to systematic receiving. Give through the consistent sharing of your tithes with God’s work and workers at the point or points where you are receiving spiritual help and inspiration. The word TITHE means TENTH and the ancient people felt that TEN was the magic number of increase.

Jacob, at a low point in his life, made a tithe covenant with God, in which he asked for prosperity, guidance, peace of mind and reconciliation with his family. In turn, he promised, “Of all that thou shalt give me, I will surely give the tenth unto thee.” It is little wonder that Jacob became one of the bible’s early millionaires…

Make a COVENANT with God - — what do you want to receive? What are you willing to give?
